Song Nanzhi took the stick from the servant and hit Song Shijin hard on his still unhealed butt.

"Ah!" Song Shijin's heartbreaking wail immediately echoed in everyone's ears.

"Rebellious son, how could my mansion produce a person like you with a heart as poisonous as a scorpion? Today you dare to treat the servants in the mansion as if they were not human beings, will you dare to go out and kill people and set fires tomorrow?" Song Nanzhi's eyes turned red.

The force on the hands became stronger and stronger.

"Pa, pa, pa!" The board hit Song Shijin's butt hard.

"Grandmother..." Song Shijin's face was pale as he pleaded in the direction of Old Madam Song.

After being beaten with a dozen boards, Song Shijin's clothes were stained with blood again.

Old Madam Song originally wanted Song Nanzhi to teach the servants a lesson to calm their anger!

Unexpectedly, he dared to be so heavy-handed!

She leaned on a crutch and tremblingly threw herself on Song Shijin, protecting him under her body.

He shouted angrily at Song Nanzhi: "That's enough. Do you really want to kill Jin Ge'er? Do you have to beat him to a cripple before you are satisfied?"

"Grandmother, please move aside. If I don't teach him a lesson today, and he goes out tomorrow and hurts those royal grandchildren and nobles, that will be a crime punishable by the extermination of the entire family! If you don't want him to bring harm to the Marquis' Mansion in the future, please let me teach him a good lesson!" As Song Nanzhi spoke, his eyes fell on Song Shijin's bloody clothes.

Most of his arrogance had dissipated, and he felt that he had been a little too harsh.

"Everything has a limit. If you don't teach me well enough, do you think you can win back by just beating me?" After saying this, Old Lady Song looked at Liu Yueru, who had an expressionless face, with dissatisfaction.

She also accused him, "Yueru, as Jin'er's mother, how did you discipline the child? How could you allow Jin'er to do what he did today? Shouldn't you blame yourself for this?"

Liu Yueru was so angry that she laughed. All the bad things were due to her improper discipline, and all the good things were the excellent genes of their Marquis' Mansion!

Without saying a word, she stepped forward, snatched the stick from Song Nanzhi's hand, and threw it to the ground.

He raised his voice and said, "Grandmother is right. It is indeed my fault for not disciplining him. I was too lenient to Jin'er, which is why the servants in his courtyard are living in dire straits."

"Grandmother is weak, come and give her a seat." Liu Yueru's face was gloomy.

After the old lady was helped aside by Mother Chen.

Liu Yueru then slowly said to Mother Yan behind her: "Go and ask for the tiger whip left by the ancestor!"

The tiger whip is a long whip with many small thorns on it. It is extremely painful when it is whipped, which is even more painful than being beaten with a stick.

In the past fifty years, the Marquis' Mansion has never asked for a tiger whip!

Old Madam Song couldn't sit still any longer.

She stood up and wanted to go to Song Shijin.

But his way was blocked by the maids around Liu Yueru.

"You, are you all rebelling? You even dare to block my way?" Old Madam Song was almost fainted from anger.

Liu Yueru straightened her body and said loudly, "Today I will listen to grandma's teachings and discipline Jin'er well. No one is allowed to stop me. The whip has no eyes. Please ask grandma to sit back in the chair to avoid accidental injury!"

Mrs. Song's eyes suddenly went dark. How could she have thought that Liu Yueru would dare to use her words to pressure her?

Even a strong man would not be able to withstand the tiger whip, let alone a little kid like Jin Ge'er!

"You can't hit him!" Old Madam Song said angrily in anxiety.

Liu Yueru showed a bright sneer at the corner of her mouth: "Grandmother said that she neglected to discipline Jin Ge'er. This matter is my fault. I will take care of it today!"

She just finished speaking.

Mother Yan came quickly to Liu Yueru's side with a tiger whip in her hand: "Madam, the tiger whip is here."

Liu Yueru carefully examined the small thorns on the tiger whip and said sternly, "Tie up the young master..."

Raise the tiger whip in your hand...

He whipped Song Shijin hard.

Whip up, whip down!

There were screams in the yard.

Song Shijin's clothes were torn by the whip and covered in blood, and he kept squirming and dodging on the ground.

Song Nanzhi clenched his hands behind his back and tried his best to restrain himself.

Old Madam Song was stopped by the servants and couldn't get through at all.

Those maids were brought from the Liu Mansion by Liu Yueru, and they all obeyed Liu Yueru's commands.

Old Madam Song was both angry and anxious. She kept pounding the ground with both hands holding the cane to show her dissatisfaction with Liu Yueru.

"You vicious woman, stop it now. If you continue hitting Jin'er, he will die!" Old Madam Song began to speak without restraint in a rage.

The more Madam Song tried to persuade and scold her, the more ruthless Liu Yueru became!

"My brother Jin, my poor child." Old Madam Song looked at Song Shijin, who was beaten to death and collapsed to the ground, muttering to herself.

Song Nanzhi noticed that Old Madam Song had collapsed to the ground, so he stepped forward to support her and then shouted at Liu Yueru who was whipping her non-stop, "That's enough!"

Liu Yueru's eyes were cold and fierce. Seeing that Song Shijin was dying and couldn't even make a wailing sound, she stopped what she was doing.

She panted a little and said to the servant beside her: "Send the young master back to his room, help the old lady back to Nanxi Hall, and the palace doctor will stay to treat the maids. All the money for the treatment and the subsequent recuperation will come from the Marquis' Mansion."

After Liu Yueru finished speaking, everyone took action.

Old Madam Song was supported and followed Jin'er into the room.

Looking at Song Shijin lying on the bed with wounds all over his body and dying, Old Madam Song had no memory of the bad things Song Shijin had done to those servants.

She only blamed Liu Yueru for being so cruel. She stretched out her hand to Song Shijin tremblingly: "My dear..."

"Hiss!" As soon as his skin was touched, Song Shijin grimaced in pain.

"I hate her. I don't want her to be my mother anymore. Grandmother, please kick her out of the mansion. I miss my mother so much." Song Shijin was filled with anger and poured it out to Old Madam Song.

Old Madam Song looked around and saw that only Mother Chen was there, so she felt relieved.

She whispered in Jin'er's ear to comfort him: "Be good, Jin'er, wait a little longer. When your mother arranges for you to study in the Imperial College, your great-grandmother will let her eat that thing..."

Song Shijin's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Okay, then can mother live with us openly?"

Old Madam Song smiled bitterly. She had originally wanted to wait until Song Shijin had forgotten about his mother, and then have Yuan Qinglian tortured to death in the village.

But now, it seems that Jin Ge'er can't leave Yuan Qinglian.

She frowned.

I don’t know how Yuan Qinglian taught her children that Jin Ge’er grew up to have such a dark side.

Old Madam Song's face darkened, and she warned Jin'er, "Jin'er, don't dare to do such things of bullying servants again in the future."

"The higher your position, the more you value your reputation. If something like this gets out, your future will be ruined, your father's future will be ruined, and even the entire mansion will be implicated."

Song Shijin gritted his teeth and said, "If it weren't for Xue'er, this matter wouldn't have been known to anyone. Now my mother has made such a big fuss about it. She doesn't even consider me her own son!"
